RAPID growth at Ballindenisk Polo Club in Co Cork opened the way last weekend to the first multi-league tournament since the first match was held there three years ago.

While tournaments at the venue near Watergrasshill continue to field just three-a-side due to the smaller than standard size of the polo ground, there was room for the first time for a beginners’ league of two teams supported by senior players and a round-robin tournament of three teams made up of experienced playing members.
